Public Health Emergency Discussion


  • Discuss a life-threatening event or a natural disaster in your community, such as a severe weather event, terrorist attack, or other type of public health emergency.
  • Examine an overall strategy that medical providers, health care organizations, and public health agencies should include in the response plan that combines the efforts of all groups.
  • Determine how these groups could work collaboratively to effectively manage this emergency. Provide specific examples to support your rationale from readings throughout your program or from peer-reviewed journal articles.
